Celtics Overhaul Roster After Tatum Semifinals Injury

News summary

The Boston Celtics are facing a major roster overhaul this offseason, with changes driven by financial pressures under the NBA's second apron and key player injuries. Jayson Tatum, who ruptured his Achilles during the Eastern Conference semifinals, is expected to miss most or all of the 2025-26 season, while Jaylen Brown is recovering from knee surgery but is expected to be ready for training camp. President of basketball operations Brad Stevens reaffirmed the team's commitment to competing rather than rebuilding, despite trading away Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis to manage luxury tax penalties. Both Tatum and Brown are reported to be progressing in their rehabilitations. The Celtics have also parted ways with Luke Kornet and are unlikely to re-sign veteran Al Horford, while adding new players such as Anfernee Simons and Georges Niang. Stevens remains optimistic about the team's potential during this transitional period.
